It was unexpected that such a troublesome matter had been resolved so easily. In the end, Su Wen did not even need to pay the compensation. Zhou Hengyang paid for her.
After leaving the village chief’s house, Su Wen could not hold it in any longer. “Why is Old Man Sun so easily convinced?”
Zhou Hengyang, walking in front, didn’t even turn his head. “On the first day I came to the Trinity Village, your village and Canter village fought over the water source of Clear Water River. It was a fierce fight.”
It was not unusual for two villages to fight over water. Trinity village and Canter Village had always had a bad relationship.
Every year, when the farmers needed to irrigate the fields, every village would work hard to transplant seedlings and sow seeds. That was related to a year’s harvest and the food and drink of the entire family.
If they couldn’t water their plants, the entire family would starve.
A few years ago, many people starved to death.
The Clear Water River was only so big, and so many people fought for water. However, the people of Canter Village were overbearing and located upstream of Trinity Village. As long as they blocked a dam in the river, they could cut off the Trinity village’s water source.
It was said that the two villages had been fighting fiercely for decades. Only now that the town and the county were strict and had come out to mediate did it ease up a little.
However, there were many minor conflicts every year.
“And then?” Su Wen was curious.
Zhou Hengyang turned around. His deep eyes tinged with a hint of mockery. “Father-in-law thinks it’S a good opportunity to establish authority, so he asked me to step in.”
“So…” Wait a minute… Could it be what she had guessed?
Zhou Hengyang snorted and asked, “Did Canter Village s.n.a.t.c.h the water source from this village anymore?”
Not long after the transplanting of rice seedlings in the village, Third Sister had been working hard to earn work points. Su Wen had sent her food several times.
The land had always been very peaceful. There had never been a fight for water, let alone a fight.
So… were the people of Canter Village afraid of the male lead?
No wonder Old Man Li was so afraid of Zhou Hengyang.
“Does everyone in the village know about this?” Why didn’t the Su know?
“The dozen or so young laborers and the village chief who partic.i.p.ated in the fight knew about it.” After all, it was a fight, so it was settled privately.
However, the effect of establishing his might at that time was indeed very good.
It should be said that it was great.
It was too frightening, and it scared people instead.
Zhou Hengyang sighed. How could he not know that Su Wen chased him away? Some who feared him had instigated her.
However, the root of the problem was still Su Wen herself, so he could not be bothered to care about it.
In the end, Su Wen hated him from the bottom of her heart!
But why did he not see any hatred or disgust in her this time?
Zhou Hengyang stared at Su Wen with a hint of curiosity and doubt in his eyes.
Su Wen was fl.u.s.tered under his gaze. She thought of something to say to break the oppressive atmosphere.
“How much did you compensate Old man Sun?”
“One hundred yuan.”
“So much?” Su Wen was not worried about the money, but she did not want to let a sc.u.mbag like Sun Dahai benefit from it. “A hundred yuan is enough to treat all the fractures in his body.”
“The amount of medical fees I compensate him will be the same as the amount he will have to spend.”
That man said coldly and left quickly without looking back.
Su Wen had to jog to catch up. When they entered the house, Zhou Hengyang packed his things and left without delay.
He returned suddenly and left without hesitation.
However, when he walked past Su Wen, he pa.s.sed her an envelope and gave her a meaningful look before turning around.
“Brother-in-law, are you leaving just like that?” Su Qing hurriedly chased after him. “It’s not too late to leave after lunch! ‘
“No, I still have things to do.”
“When are you coming back?”
Zhou Hengyang paused. “I’ll be back for the New Year.”
Su Xiu anxiously urged Su Wen, “Big sister, go and send him off. ‘
“Oh!” Su Wen did not know what to say! It was awkward. The male lead she married was not easy to get along with.
It was troublesome.
Su Wen opened the envelope in her hand as she followed him.
There was a photo inside. A picture of a man. He had handsome features and a determined gaze.
He was indeed the best male lead in her heart.
Before Su Wen could appreciate it, she immediately flipped over the back of it.
[Remember! He is your man..]
